TO say "Black Satin Rhad.
anne" is to bring to every
lady's mind a silk that under
many conditions is a prime
favorite. It's dressy, wears
well and don't hold dust; vir.
tues enough to recommend
anything. Then the price is
moderate-another virtue that
is for Black Satin Rhadames
as a rule; we have an excep.
ton that is better. You NAV
think SO as you read; you can't
help doing it when you see.
Our exception is the price--a
vital point.
The outlet we have made
for our goods by the Special
Sale has led some manufac.
turers who were overstocked
to offer us their products on
such terms that we couldn't
well refuse to take them
That accounts for these Black
Satin Rhadames and the sne.

Quality and price were never
joined more favorably to the
buyer than now. We warrant
them all silk, and will EXCHANGE
dress for dress in every case
where they don't give fair,

The Teachers Enstitnte.

Three hundred public school teachers
of New Castle county and Wilmington,
Saturday last adopted resolution that
'the Legislative appropriation of 800 is
entirely inadequate for the purposes Of
an institute here" This motion was
passed for the purpose of placing Oh
record the unanimous opinion of the
members of the institute. II is manifestly
true that the appropriations by the State
Legislature for institute purposes are en-
tirely inadequate. It was most fitting
that the members of the institute should
act upon the matter, and it was business
like and proper that they should put that
opinion definitely on record. Undoubt-
eddy the time is drawing near when that
opinion will be called up.
Meanwhile State Superintendent L. N.
Williams and his assistant, Professor Car
penter, are out of pocket $3.50 on insti-
tute expenses. 1t is true that those gen

ers. 1t was looked for, and is customary
everywhere. It afforded the needed
change for the teachers from the close
mental occupation of the day. Besides
as guests, the visitors were entitled Il

and the ungenerous treatment of the
visitors in causing them to pay from theil
hard earned savings the cost Of the enter
tainments, instead of treating them as
bona fde guests, combine in making a

lEEE' ASaD DIFFERENTIATION
The request has time and again been
made to the General Assembly by citizens
Of the county OF New Castle that an increase
Of representation should be accorded to
that county In the Legislature Of this State,
and Ms often AS that request has been made
II has been refused.
In my Judgment 1t IL but fair and proper
that that which In justice belongs TO 1t
should Ue granted. Il Is well known fact
| that the county OF New Castle Is rapidly in
Grea=ing In population. 1t contains within
| It's limits many OF the manufacturing In
| dustries Of the country.
Every year Its industries and enterprises
| are increasing. With this Increase Of busi-
| ness and enterprise there Is correspond
| ing increase OF population. Already the
| voting population Of that county ls vastly
/ larger than that of either of the other coun-
Ties Of this State. Other states have recog-
| nized the principle that populous commu-
mites are entitled to and should be allowed
a larger representation In their legislatures
than those less populous. To me 1t seems
that fair and just increase of representa-
ton for New Castle county would be but
right and proper.
The General Assembly, by the constitution
of the State is composed OF m equal
number OF members from each county, and
In my Judgment an inequality OF representa-.
ton cannot be made by the Gel eral As.
sembly, The Legislature is but the creature
Of tho constitution, and cannot change II
IN any respect except In the manner which
the constitution itself provides.
The formation Of constitution Is the ex.
erclse OF sovereign power by the people
themselves. Sovereignty resides In the
constitutions. The Legislature can dc
neither the one nor the other Of these
things. The creation Of equality In the
, General Assembly by the constitution
which is the expressed will OF the people
and az act OF sovereignty itself, cannot b,
! destroyed, and an inequality Of representa-
ton by the several counties be established
by an act Of the Legislature, The creatur,
Z cannot destroy its creator. Such a chang,
In the constitution Of the General Assembi,
, can only be made by a convention of tn
: people themselves or by amendment by tn

A Denver Street Fight.

DENVER, April IA riot occurred
late last night between rival Swede, Pole
and Hungarian colonists, at the corner Ct Ct
Thirty-fourth and Blank streets. There
has been long standing jealousy in the
settlement over young Polish woman
named Alice Falka, who yesterday morn
ing left the settlement on the south side
of the street, spending the day with the
rival colony. Both parties got druAk,
and street fight resulted in one party
driving the rivals into their houses, where
wild scene took place. Chairs, tables
and bedsteads were broken up and the
peices were used as weapons to pound
each other over the head. Many were
knocked senseless and tramped under
foot nutl Life was nearly extinct. Several
shots were fred and Pole named Sibo-
ritch was fatally shot, and others seri-
ously wounded. Twelve policemen
armed with Winchesters surrounded the
houses. The mob at first attempted to
resist and made a dash at the officers
armed with clubs, knives and revolvers,
but when they were met by the bluecoats
ready to fire into them they fell back and
made little resistance. They are ragged
and dirty, spattered with blood and dirt.
Many of them came to Denver one week
ago, direct from Hungary, Poland and
Bohemia.

Awakening Interest.

. B. s. Russell who has spent the winter
talking Dakota in Pennsylvania and east
ern states, returned home Tuesday. Mr..
Russell is sanguine Of considerable i'm
migration this spring into the territory,
and in July and August a great many are
booked to come prospecting, while next
season, if all is favorable this will witness
genuine return of the crowds that for
merly handled Dakota dirt and made
money. The east is overcrowded with
dissatisfied farmers and every town con-
tains hundreds Of people anxious to come
west and secure good land and homes.
just now Kansas seems to have the for
tune to be attracting the most general
attention and several years Of good crops
seem to have again brought that neg
lected county into favorable notice. Land
that few years ago was almost given
away or could be bought for song now
commands unlocked for prices and all
manner of business and enterprise is
Aourishing. Mr.. Russell is confident of a
similar condition of affairs awaiting Da-
kota, not very far in the future. His
opinion is confirmed by many visitors and
capitalists who have lately been heard
from on this matter. ~"

DR.. McGlynn snubbed.

CINCINNATI. April 13.-Dr. McGlynn
arrived this morning. Some Of his friends
desired to introduce him to the repre-
sentative business men of the chamber of
commerce, and to that end asked Mayor
John Byrne, of the Chesapeake & Ohio
road, to make the introduction. Mayor
Byrne declined, saying that as Catholic,
loyal to the precepts and authority Of the
church, he had no sympathy with DR..
McGlynn's position; that as good citi-
zen, he could not in any sense recognize
the false theories which the doctor was
attempting to propagate; as member OF
the chamber of commerce. the same views
compelled him to decline. Others who
were approached took the same view and,
thus DR.. McGlynn was not visitor on
the change.

Wholesale RetributiOn.

P1TTsBURG, April 12.-The most i'm
portant arrests ever made in this part of
the country we're begun at an early hour
this morning by the Pan Handle railroad.
How many members are in the gang is
not known, but they run up into the
hundreds. Their stealing extends over
a period of two or three years and the
amount stolen reaches nearby 100000.
For three years past the Pan Handle
freight cars nave been Systematically
robbed. The cars on the sidings and
cars in moving trains were broken open
and goods stolen, including every descrip-
tion of merchandise. All kinds of goods
were stolen, including sewing machines,
guns, revolvers, cutlery, silverware, cigars,
clothing, liquors and groceries.

More Wells Projected.

The success Of the artestian well will
probably result in the drilling of two
more wells in jamestown. At least there
is already talk of two more. The asy-
lum trustees are seriously considering the
project of supplying that institution with
water by this means and it is said the
railroad company also thinks of doing
likewise.
Mayor Graham has sent q bottle of the
water to an eastern chemist to have a
chemical analysis made and upon the
result of this analysis will probably hang
the decision in regard to the additional
wells
The water in the city we'll is said to
have noticeably increased in volume yes
terday and flows steadily along in splen-
did volume. The ditch which conducted
the surplus water to the river looked
like white line of mist yesterday, the
warmer temperature of the artesian flood
covering the acqueduct with a fine man
tie of mist. The we'll is frequently visited
by citizens and strangers, all of whom are
delighted with the aqueous marvel. ..
